Custom Idle Animation Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.7.3

by: Xerrok [More]

WARNING ABOUT VERSIONS 1.7 AND 1.7.1!
Since the indices of the emotes were changed by Zenimax, and the fact that this addon only stores the indices of emotes, idle sets from previous versions can't be migrated and therefore will be deleted!
I've changed it so, that the names of the emotes instead of the indices will be stored from now on, so that this case won't happen again.

With this addon you are able to replace the default idle animation with any in-game emotes.
You can use idle sets to totally customize your idle animation with all available emotes. Every emote can be given a minimum play time and a priority for more customization. Feel free to make idle sets for several "moods" of your characters.

The emotes will play almost immediately after your character's idle starts and the defined delay has passed. After that, the emotes will refresh every time when the defined minimum time has passed, or repeatedly during its minimum time, if loop is activated. The same emote can be executed more than once, which can result in a longer time a certain emote is being played.

With the chat command /cia or Escape->Settings->Addons->Custom Idle Animations you will get into the settings.
If you hover with the cursor over the single settings, a tooltip will pop up with helpful information.

You can assign keys to easily switch between the idle sets and a key to activate/deactivate the addon in the controls settings of ESO.

Known Bug:

When trying to sit on chairs, benches and such, the emotes will interrupt it. Deactivate the addon with the assigned key, so the character will keep sitting.
Having any UI window active and the game not in focus, results in getting messages, that the action couldn't be executed.

I believe you can set it to ignore updates for specific addons in minion, just rightclick it and there's an option there!

womble Forum posts: 0 File comments: 1 Uploads: 0	I can't use 1.6 I had a problem with 1.5.5, with it alternating between 2 emotes, and ignoring the rest, but I changed the delay and minimum time settings, to 10 and 14 seconds, and it worked great. I regarded it as an essential AddOn. I can't use 1.6. There's no delay for starting the first emote, and it just plays one emote, and ignores the rest. Also, it's cumbersome to use. It's much easier typing the emote commands, rather than scrolling through endless menus. Also, I don't like the chat-based status messages. I try to keep chat clear. I went back to 1.5.5, but I want Minion to automatically update, so it updated me back to 1.6, so I uninstalled it. Right now, 1.6 is too much trouble. I wish I could just use 1.5.5, which I regard as an essential AddOn. It should really be built into the game.

And is it just me, or does opening the settings menu reeallly lag the game? Looking forward to the update! Hope we haven't overwhelmed you with too much feedback.

Oh darn, I didn't realize this. Thats definitely not a good solution then. :/ I thought /idle just did the normal idle for whatever personality you were using, but after testing it out on a few, I see that's not the case! D:

Definitely agree that a 'once then done' option for the non-looping emotes would be reeeallly nice. And the new menu is nice to be able to see all the emotes.. found some i didnt even realize existed! but.. I kinda agree it is tedious to set up with. Could there be an option to type in the /emotes like before as well, or would that be way too complicated?

Another feature I would reeeeeallly like, would be to separate idles from emotes completely. Like, have a section where you set your idle 'stance', (none for default personality stance, or /idle2, /idle3, /idle4, ect) which would activate near instant(like it does currently), because they are meant to replace the default idle stance, then a separate section for emotes that are generally once-and-done animations that play after youve been idling for a bit, at random(eg, /eat, /yawn, /stretch, ect).

xaraan Forum posts: 0 File comments: 27 Uploads: 0	Offering my feedback, but I understand this is your vision and your work, so I am not making any demands here. Personally, I preferred the old version and may roll mine back. Hopefully being out of date won't hurt anything. This version takes a very very long time to set up compared to the old version. And once set up still doesn't seem to perform as well as the old version. The animations occur too close together and using a generic pose like idle to break the routine up by scaling it priority higher ends up taking away from the default personality poses sometimes. I don't know what the min/max basic animation times are for every animation, so some of my animations are cut off half way through and it's a lot to make those fine tune adjustments for 18 characters. And if you leave the play time too long it starts repeating short animations (sometimes cutting those off the second or third time as well). I felt like it was a lot easier and faster to just be able to type in the animations as i looked at a list (like in help menu) of my options instead of scrolling through the whole list as it is now. And even if I didn't adjust the min/max time in the old version the entire animations always played out.

Putting the normal /idle on at 100 priority should help with this a ton! If you find the emotes are happening too often, just keep increasing it's duration until its a good balance~

That did help and would be a good work around until a more elegant solution is introduced. Unfortunately, I've disabled the addon altogether because I think it's linked to some crashes I've been happening. Not going to call this a "bug report" though since I'm not convinced it's CIA's fault. Anyway, thanks for the tip

I would like to have a setting to set the time until animation.
Thx alot, great AddOn!

			getFunc = function() return "Set "..tostring(CIA.activeEmoteSet) end,
			setFunc = function(var) SwitchActiveSet(tonumber(string.sub(var, 5))) end,

No when I change from set to set it does not remember the emotes of Bard set it over writes them with the default one. I am pretty sure some function is trying to locate the Set "number" but cant and set it as defult or the set Bard is not saved... Is there something I could do? Since I am totally new to LUA ... only 2 youtube videos.

So maybe for the next update if we could name our sets or if you could just send me towards a tutorial so I may edit it myself. Thanks Love the addon

Done

Thanks for the update... and implementing my suggestion !

Is it just me or there is no more keybindings for specific Emotes sets?

Also you should add a Donate Button

More feedback: Maybe make normal /idle be on by default, so when first setting it up users aren't swamped with just their emotes? But please keep it optional for people like me who really like instant emotes so I can completely replace the normal idle with other idles!

It's so nice to be able to use dutchess personality and NEVER have to see the 'hand in the air' idle!

unit220 Forum posts: 0 File comments: 9 Uploads: 0	feedback I actually finally created an account just to give feedback here. I like the way you've set up the menu to list the potential emotes, but there are some pretty glaring issues that make me want to roll back to the previous system. First is that animations start playing as soon as I stand still, this is super jarring and should probably be the first thing changed or given an option for. Second is that setting a min/max time for everything means I need to know how long each emote is or I'll either cut off the emote or let it loop for too long. A "play once and done" setting would be GREATLY appreciated. Lastly, there should be an option to set a cooldown time between emotes. Since I like having a variety of emotes play I've set the times low but, with how the system currently works, my character looks like she is a crack head while bouncing between annoyed, stretching, yawning, and scratching. However, this line "After that the emotes will refresh everytime when a random time between the defined minimum and maximum time is over" in the description of the addon make me think that what I'm seeing is a bug or that I just don't fundamentally understand the system. I also want to say that I really like your work on the tooltips, they are well made and helped out a lot (especially when hovering over an emote name). Good tt's are not something addons always do and I wanna give credit where credit is due. Last edited by unit220 : 02/29/20 at 01:07 AM.

I don't think you can with the new setup. But if you put in the normal /idle at 100 priority, it will just do normal idle most of the time, which should have a similar effect~
